Is there anybody know exactly about Melancholic persons?

Answer 1

Extremely gifted but insecure people.
They have a 99% chance of always feeling low and depressed, cos they are really deep thinker as well as feelers.
Very loyal friends to have and highly intelligent.
Never too reactive, they take their time in resolving issues; that’s why they are the best to ask for business advice (depending on what field they are in).
They also could be very stubborn and antagonistic.
but most of all, cos they are so emotional ( hence the dept of melancholia) they tend to get easily hurt by others and feel people are always out to get them.
Usually when a person with these tendencies is able to get past the above traits and keep his emotions in check, they could be very lovely people.

Answer 2

I'll give it a shot: 1) It is supposed to improve the health care benefits to the average person, not necessarily you individually, by allowing people who at the moment cannot afford adequate health care to receive it. That raises the average standard of care. 2) The idea is that they will be reduced due to limitations on what insurance premiums can be charged in addition to what kind of care is covered. 3) Health care fees won't really be reduced, but it intends to make it more likely that insurance companies will actually have to pay out claims instead of finding a loophole once people get sick, and thus on average less money will be charged to patients directly. Whether you agree with it as a good idea is not the issue here. It is just what their justification and expectations are.

Answer 3

Under the ancient medical theory of the four humours, the four temperaments are personality types or moods ascribed to the imbalance of certain bodily fluids in each person. Temperament was closely-related, or synonymous, with complexion.

Melancholic is the personality of an individual characterized by black bile; hence (Greek μελας, melas, "black", + χολη, kholé, "bile"); a person who was a thoughtful ponderer had a melancholic disposition. Often very kind and considerate, melancholics can be highly creative - as in poets and artists - but also can become overly obsessed on the tragedy and cruelty in the world, thus becoming depressed. It also indicates the season of autumn (dry and cold) and the element of earth.

This temperament describes the depressed phase of a bipolar disorder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melancholic

Melancholics are characterized by the element of Earth, the season of Autumn, middle-aged adulthood, the color blue, and the characteristics of "Cold" and "Dry." Famous Melancholics include St. John of the Cross, St. John the Divine, St. Francis, and St. Catherine of Siena.

If you were living in the Age of Faith, perfect career choices for you would be contemplative religious, theologian, artist, or writer.

From "The Four Temperaments," by Rev. Conrad Hock

The Melancholic:


Is self-conscious, easily embarrassed, timid, bashful.
Avoids talking before a group; when obliged to he finds it difficult.
Prefers to work and play alone. Good in details; careful.
Is deliberative; slow in making decisions; perhaps overcautious even in minor matters.
Is lacking in self-confidence and initiative; compliant and yielding.
Tends to detachment from environment; reserved and distant except to intimate friends.
Tends to depression; frequently moody or gloomy; very sensitive; easily hurt.
Does not form acquaintances readily; prefers narrow range of friends; tends to exclude others.
Worries over possible misfortune; crosses bridges before coming to them.
Is secretive; seclusive; shut in; not inclined to speak unless spoken to.
Is slow in movement; deliberative or perhaps indecisive; moods frequent and constant.
Is often represents himself at a disadvantage; modest and unassuming.
The melancholic person is but feebly excited by whatever acts upon him. The reaction is weak, but this feeble impression remains for a long time and by subsequent similar impressions grows stronger and at last excites the mind so vehemently that it is difficult to eradicate it.

Such impression may be compared to a post, which by repeated strokes is driven deeper and deeper into the ground, so that at last it is hardly possible to pull it out again. This propensity of the melancholic needs special attention. It serves as

Answer 4

In psychology depression is commonly defined as anger that is felt outward but is not expressed and instead internalized. So (I am a therapist) with clients who come to see me who are depressed (on various levels) one of my goals is to help them figure out who or what they are angry with/at. For some it was an event that knocked them down and they have yet to get back up. Granted there or those who are not good at expressing their anger on any given day rather than in response to an event. Many times we get rewarded for sulking or being depressed or in grief and then make a connection (most likely subconsciously) between being down or depressed and getting comfort. For example...a child who loses a parent most likely gets a lot of attention and sympathy while in their grief. They find (again most likely subconsciously) that the level of attention and sympathy they get is directed related to their mood. So the more they stay in grief, the more attention and comfort they get. This is why it is suggested that when a child is sick, a parent not fawn over him/her because it teaches a child that getting sick means attention and comfort. If you notice with young children when they fall down or get hurt they usually look right over at the parent/adult who is with them. Many times the level of their reaction is based on how the parent/adults reacts (facial expression) and not their own experience of what happened. Of course there are many different theories of depression and overall when I work with someone who is depressed I find that the more they learn to express their anger (in healthy ways) the more they begin to feel relief from depression.
